NAME

tkadmin query disk - returns detailed information about a disk

SYNOPSIS

tkadmin query disk -server servername diskname

ARGUMENTS

-server servername Specifies the server affected by the command. The server name is the name that is registered with the DCE Directory Service. If the server name is not specified in the command line, it is retrieved from an environment variable, ENCINA_TK_SERVER. 

diskname Specifies the disk to be queried. On UNIX, this name is the name of the character-interface to the disk - for instance, /dev/rsd1e - as opposed to the name of the block-interface to the disk. On Windows NT, specifies the full path name of the operating system file being used. 

DESCRIPTION

The tkadmin query disk command displays the following information about the disk:

Disk size

Information about regions on the disk: the starting offset, the size, and the name of the physical volume to which it belongs

If the disk queried is not initialized, this command fails. Using the information provided by this command, you can calculate the available space on a disk. 

NOTES

Windows NT uses fully-allocated operating system files as disks.  All occurrences of “disk” and “disk partition” should be read as “file” throughout the description of this command when used on Windows NT. The result of the command is the same.
